When you use cfchart it outputs a set of HTML, not just the image. Try
viewing source on a cfchart page and you will see what I mean. It
isn't just the JPG (or Flash), but rather all the HTML necessary to

Then query your admin datasource only once, onApplicationStart, and load the

Maybe the server scope is the way to go for this. It is the level above
